JSF Tools

Project Documentation

Welcome to JSF Tools!

Velocity users probably all know the very useful
VelocityTools
project:

The VelocityTools project is, first of all, a collection of such useful Java classes, as well as
infrastructure to easily, automatically and transparently make these tools available to your Velocity
templates.

GenericTools is the set of classes that provide basic infrastructure for using tools in standard Java SE
Velocity projects, as well as a set of tools for use in generic Velocity templates. Perenial favorites here
are the DateTool, NumberTool and RenderTool, though there are many others available as well.

The target of JSF Tools
project is to bring the GenericTools classes to JSF developers as
Facelets
functions.
